California Herniated Disk Disability Lawyers

Herniated disks cause a significant amount of pain, typically in the lower back or neck. Quite often, individuals suffering from a herniated disk feel instant localized pain or pressure as well as chronic pain that can radiate into the upper or lower extremities. Often, this results in significant limitations on prolonged sitting, standing, walking and bending.

Our herniated disk disability lawyers have been representing clients throughout California for more than 30 years. We have recovered millions of dollars in compensation for injured California workers over the course of our firm's history, including the largest jury verdict ever recorded for a disability claim in California.

Our law firm has handled thousands of disability cases, working against every major insurance company in the country. We know the tactics that the insurance companies will use to try to deny or delay a claim, and the necessary legal procedures to pursue in order reach an effective outcome for the situation. We are committed to holding insurance companies accountable to paying benefits to our clients.
